2024 Youth Awards
The Riverside County Workforce Development Board is in the process of selecting youth honorees for the 2024 Jamil Dada Character Excellence Youth Awards that will be presented on Friday, July 12, 2024, at March Field Air Museum. This event will celebrate Riverside County youth who have shown exemplary character while overcoming some of life’s most significant challenges. Awardees receive educational scholarship funds, legislative certificates, and recognition at the awards event. In spite of their difficult and sometimes tragic situations, these young people have been identified as leaders in their communities, determined to earn a high school diploma, and/or in pursuit of a post-secondary education. Each awardee is recognized for exemplifying two or more of the Six Pillars of Character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring and Citizenship.
